Hi Mattias.

I've just noticed your patch (voms-extra-vomses-java.patch) which adds the
~/.voms/vomses thingy I've mentioned in the report just before.

IMHO this is a very good idea (putting this stuff in ~/.voms), especially
as the .globus, .glite, /etc/vomses, /etc/grid-security is really some mess, IMHO.


Could you add the same probably for the vomsdir/ directory, where either
the PEM files or those .lsc files are read from?
Would be awesome!

Not whether the same should be done for the certificates directory.
They _are_ already read from ~/.globus/certificates... OTHO it could be a cleaner
approach to have everything VOMS client related in ~/.voms.


Thanks,
Chris.

Seems I was wrong,... while strace shows that voms-proxy-init does look
around int ~/.globus/certificates... it still geives an error in the end:

Error: verify failed.
Cannot verify AC signature!

if I didn't set both, X509_CERT_DIR and X509_VOMS_DIR to my custom
locations in .globus/certifiates and .voms/vomsdir respectively.
